I got a second hand request for Jennifer Weiner read-a-likes, so
the only other thing I know about the person is that she also
likes John Grisham. These are the authors/titles I came up with:
Melissa Bank
Sarah Bird
Jennifer Crusie
Sophie Kinsella
Marian Keyes
Circle of Friends by Maeve Binchy
Jemima J by Jane Green
See Jane Date by Melissa Senate
Does anyone have any other suggestions or think that any of these

I just finished reading Olivia Goldsmith's
"Switcheroo" which is similarly full of angst over
both body and love-life, and very funny.
Also, I have a list of chick lit that might be
helpful, but I've only reviewed a few of them thus far
so can't say for sure how many are "Good-in-Beddish":
Curnyn, Lynda "Confessions of an Ex-Girlfriend",
Durrant, Sabine "Having It and Eating It",
Fielding, Helen The "Bridget Jones" series,
Green, Jane "Bookends","Jemima J.: A Novel About Ugly
Ducklings & Swans",
Keyes, Marian "Angels", "Last Chance Saloon", "Lucy
Sullivan is Getting Married", "Rachel's Holiday",
"Watermelon",
Knight, India "My Life on a Plate",
Markham, Wendy "Slightly Single",
Maxted, Anna "Getting Over It",
Murphy, Amanda "The Art of Lost Luggage",
Olson, Shannon "Welcome to my Planet Where English is
Sometimes Spoken",
Walker, Fiona "Snap Happy"
Weir, Arabella "Does My Bum Look Big in This?"
